Labour — Tynemouth

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 September 2026

Debate

Business of the House

Contribution

The Secretary of State came to the House at the earliest opportunity, and making that statement was the right thing to do. The Government are going away to have a look at these matters, because we are keen that we get the best possible local government in this country. When there are further things to say on these matters, I am sure that the Secretary of State will come back and report to the House.
